Resealing in New End: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Bath resealing in New End without replacing anything
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with an untidy old seal and gaps in the seal, we can usually put it right, on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Worcestershire.

What affects the price in New End
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Landlord and trade work in New End
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around New End, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hidden water damage
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

What else we do in New End
FAQs for New End
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
